Power outage–Walhalla

Parts of Walhalla downtown are without power–the apparent result of a car accident which brought down electric power lines in front of the Civic Auditorium.  The outage affects Main Street traffic lights and businesses on the north side of Main.  Police, fire, and ambulance were on the scene shortly after 5 this afternoon.  We’ve been told Duke Energy has been notified.  While apparent live electric lines lay on North College near Broad, public safety responders were exercising care in making their way to the car driver still inside his vehicle.
